New Complete Guide to Band Saws: Everything You Need to Know About the Most Important Saw in the Shop (Fox Chapel Publishing) How to Choose, Setup, Use, & Maintain Your Band Saw, plus Troubleshooting Review: Introduced me to my Band Saw - I'm just starting in woodworking. I started by building an end grain cutting board in a friends workshop with his help, and have been slowly getting into the hobby. The first tool I was looking to get was a Band Saw since it most matched what I wanted to do. My problem was, I had no clue what to look for, how to use one, what to do. This book was pretty helpful for me in that regard. It starts at the very basics of the Band Saw. Reading through the book I got an idea of what parts consists of the saw, their names, their functions, what type of bandsaw I should look for for the type of work I wanted to, what type of blades I should get, how to use the blades, and a lot more. The book helped me very much with the basic operation and function of the band saw, and when I finally got one, I was a pretty comfortable with it considering it was my first time really using one. Reading through the actual manual for the bandsaw much of the information felt very familiar. This book though went into a lot of detail and provided helpful tools and tips whereas the manual didn't. It certainly was a helpful supplement to the provided documentation. The book is easy to read, it is detailed but not overly technical. There are a lot of helpful illustrations and drawings to help illustrate the point the book is making. The book will cover up to how to do some basic cuts (straight curved) follow patterns, and some light project type work. But this is not a book that gives you 15 projects to start off. The book gets you off the ground with Band Saw's, and if you need a guide cause you don't know all that much - this book is an excellent tool. Review: Great book for any woodworker with a bandsaw - I have a growing woodshop and recently added a bandsaw to the shop and was looking for a book to cover the basics in terms of setup and some tips. The New Complete Guide to the Band Saw truly lives up to its name. The book not only covered the basics of how a bandsaw works, but offers a wealth of information on the many ways a bandsaw can be used. From jigs to resawing and the difference between blades—it covers everything. The book is well written, and the book offers a balance of professional photographs along with text covering a wide range of topics starting with making sure the bandsaw is set up properly. Whether you are a beginning, intermediate or advanced woodworker, this book will give you insight and ideas for your own woodworking. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #281,222 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #30 in Power Tools (Books) #321 in Woodworking Projects (Books) #11,892 in Crafts & Hobbies (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (366) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 0.5 x 10.75 inches | | Edition | New | | ISBN-10 | 1565238419 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1565238411 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 200 pages | | Publication date | April 1, 2014 | | Publisher | Fox Chapel Publishing | ## Images ![New Complete Guide to Band Saws: Everything You Need to Know About the Most Important Saw in the Shop (Fox Chapel Publishing) How to Choose, Setup, Use, & Maintain Your Band Saw, plus Troubleshooting - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91753LFlsTL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Introduced me to my Band Saw *by S***K on May 24, 2011* I'm just starting in woodworking.

The New Complete Guide to the Band Saw truly lives up to its name. The book not only covered the basics of how a bandsaw works, but offers a wealth of information on the many ways a bandsaw can be used.

This is an excellent book. It seems to cover everything you need to know about band saw operation, tuning, blade choice and more. The chapter on setup and tuning seems to be particularly thorough. As another reviewer stated, the chapter on jigs is a little thin, but helpful and useful, too. I keep most of my woodworking books on a shelf in my bedroom, but this one is going to live in the shop as I'll be referring to it frequently as I learn the ins and outs of band saw use. I'm not so easily impressed by woodworking books, but this one is definitely a keeper. ## Frequently Bought Together - New Complete Guide to Band Saws: Everything You Need to Know About the Most Important Saw in the Shop (Fox Chapel Publishing) How to Choose, Setup, Use, & Maintain Your Band Saw, plus Troubleshooting - The New Bandsaw Box Book: Techniques & Patterns for the Modern Woodworker - Taunton's Complete Illustrated Guide to Bandsaws (Complete Illustrated Guides (Taunton)) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/5334811-new-complete-guide-to-band-saws-everything-you-need-to](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/5334811-new-complete-guide-to-band-saws-everything-you-need-to) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
